More of a phrase for me: "Grab a beer".
subtle tones of homophobia and assertions of surprisingly fragile masculinity.
'Jelly', as in 'u jelly bro?'
Here's another great entry:"Hello."
"Sup."I hate "sup." If this gets texted or messaged to me I will not reply to it.
C'mon, you made that up?
"I could care less." Really? You COULD care less? So you actually DO care, a little?
omgwtfbbqI get it. You're a prepubescent teen that can combine acronyms together.Now STFU and GTFO PLOZ. kthx.
But I agree that now it's become a bad joke that won't die.

not so much because of the words themselves but rather because of how they're used by people.
By God I have to concur. I couldn't think of a truly hateful word, but that certainly is one.Other than that and what's been posted, I tend to dislike words like "geek" and "gamer", not so much because of the words themselves but rather because of how they're used by people.
Berserk isn't really "dark fantasy" either. It's plain fantasy
Miura has been very protective of Berserk

Good call, kind of embodies the spirit of the thread.
That was pretty funny, but I think we hate words for more than that. It's not just abusing hyperbole; we hate propaganda, advertising buzzwords, stupid puns, and some of the ways technology has changed how we treat others.

Or perhaps people just have irrational issues with words. For example, I can't say I hate the expression but I've aways had a problem with people telling me "you're welcome" after I thank them. I don't know why, I do understand that it's the proper reply, but every time I hear it or even read it, I get a bit upset (though I have to admit that it was worse a few years ago). I myself never (or very seldom) use that expression, instead using less appropriate replies such as "no problem". Go figure.
Most of it is inconsequential, but some words manipulate public opinion. How much support do you think there would be for 'racial profiling' had it been called 'racist profiling' instead?
